Dear Gary
I just spent a few hours finding out how to make GPSD autostart on
Raspbian Jessie. In [1] you write under /Troubleshooting Start at Boot/
to set ExecStart=/usr/sbin/gpsd -N …
Well this does not work under current GPSD and Raspbian. scons puts the
file GPSD in the folder /user/local/sbin/gpsd so you have to adapt that
line.
For troubleshooting I would recommend this:
1st run $systemctl status gpsd.service to see what systemd did with gpsd
2nd run $whereis gpsd to find the path to the file
3rd apply this path in /etc/systemd/system/gpsd.service
BTW: In Wheezy I could still use dpkg-reconfigure gpsd even when I
compiled my own gpsd. Troubleshooting would not be needed in most cases
if dpkg-reconfigure would do things right even in Jessie.
Just my 50 cents.
Regards
Robin
=====================================
Robin,
I also found the changes made in Jessie made access to the serial port, and
getting gpsd to autostart, awkward. I made some notes near the bottom of
this page:

Hope that helps.
Cheers,
David
